WOW!!! Have You and Your Child(ren) Listened to a Tumblebook?

   

 

 What is a TumbleBook?

TumbleBooks are animated, talking picture books which teach kids the joy of reading in a format they’ll love. TumbleBooks are created by taking existing picture books, adding animation, sound, music and narration to produce and electronic picture book which you can read, or have read to you.

What will I find in the collection?

Over 150 TumbleBooks, plus educational games, reading comprehension quizzes, and our new Record-a-Book function.

Do I need special software to view TumbleBooks?

All you need is the Flash plug-in which is preloaded on most computers. If you are unable to view the TumbleBooks, you can download the plug-in for FREE at www.macromedia.com/downloads.

Where can I find TumbleBooks?

Go to the Montgomery City/County Library website (www.mccpl.lib.al.us). From our home page, look for the link “Check out our new TumbleBook Library for Children” in the middle of the page.

Media Access Growing Beyond Morgan

Patrons can now start placing holds on media titles at the following library branches:  Pike Road Library, E.L. Lowder Regional Branch Library, Rufus Lewis Regional Branch Library and the Pintlala Branch Library.  Media items may be picked up and returned to Morgan, Lewis, Lowder, Pike Road and Pintlala libraries during library hours.

 

The new Pike Road Library location has a small media collection.  We will create a media collection for the other designated branches soon.   At this time only designated branches may place holds and receive media items. Thanks.
